Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 135
Episode 135. ‘Frost Blade’ lack (1)
Roles were distributed to each member.
Lee Tae-min, Yoo Yeon-hwa, and Teresa left to spy out the area where the demons and their blood relatives were stationed.
And Chun Yoo-seong went out of the tower with Jin-hyeok giving him a certain mission.
He complained a lot, but only for a moment.
What would you do if you said you hate baeknal?
Rejection is not an option anyway.
Finally, Jinhyeok, along with Jang Eun-seok and other Dangun guild players, headed to the place where the ‘Damsu Lake’ is located.
In the whitened vision and the rough wind.
Fifteen men and women lined up in a row.
“Be careful with your feet from here on out. Because it is a terrain with crevasses, you must follow only the path I take.”
Jinhyeok led the party from the front.
“Sheesh. Do you think you’re going to be anything and measure like that?”
Jang Jang-seok, who was walking a little away from Jin-hyeok, clicked his tongue.
His face, stained with irritation and envy, was full of inferiority complex toward his opponent.
It had to be.
If you are asked to pick the most influential guild in the world, the Dangun Guild will always appear as a candidate.
Wasn’t he the one who proudly won the position of engineering chief there?
In addition, while spending 90 days on the 6th floor, the guild’s position became even more solid. The influence of players is higher than any other occupation.
To put it bluntly, he was not envious of a member of the National Assembly at the executive level of a large guild.
And yet…
why the hell is that bastard!
‘Are you getting more recognition and attention than me!’
Jang Eun-seok’s mouth twisted subtly.
Even at this moment, I could see Jinhyeok walking while receiving the envying gazes of the engineers.
It’s just that I know a little more information, but if it wasn’t for that, I would have thrown it out right away.
“Isn’t that right, Taeho? uh? No, at most, why is everyone sucking at that guy just because he’s done the first clear a few times?”
Jang Jang-seok asked as if asking for consent.
Then the man next to him smiled bitterly.
Taeho Lee.
He was the player who was the vice-captain of this raid.
Jang Jang-seok and I must have been close friends since before the Tower of Ordeal appeared.
Thanks to that, now that everything has become a reality, I was able to enter the Dangun Guild in recognition of my skills and experience at that time.
“Don’t talk too much. If it wasn’t for Player Kang Jin-hyuk and the rest, we might all have died.”
The difference between the two was that, unlike Jang Jang-seok, Lee Tae-ho knew how to acknowledge his opponent.
Knowing that an inferiority complex is only poisonous, is it a style that tries to absorb the strengths of others?
If he had a better fighting sense than Jang Eun-seok, he might have surpassed him and rose to the position of engineering chief.
“shit. I can’t say anything. have a look I’ll get ahead of a guy like that at once this time. I will do everything with my own hands to obtain the feathers of the phoenix and to destroy the demons.”
Jang Eun-seok bit his molar.
okay. will definitely make it
Because the main character of this raid was himself, not anyone else.
but.
Even the conversation I thought would have been completely buried by the sound of the wind.
‘This is so unfortunate…’
Jinhyeok was already listening to everything.
To say I’m sorry is sincere.
It was admirable that he worked hard even if he didn’t like it, so he brought him along.
just decided
How thinly should Jang Eun-seok be rolled?
***
Fresh water lake.
It is the coldest place on the 7th floor, and at the same time, it is the place where all the magic of the floor is concentrated.
As befits a place where powerful energy gathers, there were large numbers of non-standard monsters inhabiting this place.
however.
Ecosystems maintained by the natural balance of forces have all collapsed some time ago.
By none other than the Ice Trolls.
To be precise, by the tribes named ‘Frost Blade’.
and right now. Thousands of ice trolls gathered at a distance from the fresh water lake.
“…hmm.”
The troll buried himself on a chair made of red fur and let out a deep silence.
Blue skin and long tusks.
The sharp, shining eyes were particularly conspicuous.
He was at least one and a half times bigger than the trolls gathered here.
How much time had passed like that?
Finally, one of the trolls, who could not stand it, opened his mouth.
It was a troll with one of its molars broken.
“Chief… I can’t do this. No, you shouldn’t do this.”
A word made up of two syllables.
To those words bearing the fate of a race…
the troll, who had been silent for a while, reacted.
“Know.”
A low voice came out.
I knew what the troll with the broken molar meant by saying that.
but.
“Can not help it.”
The heaviness felt in a short conversation.
That’s how Carakal, chieftain of the Frostblade clan and regarded as the greatest warrior in tribal history, concluded.
I can’t help it.
It is inevitable for them to follow the demons and vampire bloodlines.
I had to rationalize that.
Of course, this decision was not what they wanted.
pride and honor.
Those two were the pillars that supported the name Frostblade.
However, in trying to protect those values, everything in the tribe was in danger of turning into ashes.
It was because the alliance composed of the overwhelming Decassus blood relatives and demons did not even have the slightest mercy.
‘Warriors are not afraid to die.’
It is the warrior’s long-cherished wish to die fighting the strong.
Life isn’t worth anything.
Death was familiar and close, so I could accept it at any time.
The problem is….
children and females who have no power.
Precious companions carrying the future of the tribe.
If they were all lost, the name Frostblade would be lost in the snow forever.
so that.
Because I had to endure it all.
Caracal gave up both honor and pride.
He had to bear all the burden himself, not anyone else.
Because that was the duty of a chief who leads a tribe.
“Chief…!”
“I will not allow objections. All warriors, check your weapons one last time. If the blood relatives come here tomorrow, they will follow them and attack the humans.”
That’s it.
Survival in exchange for honor was decided.
But just then
Someone approached the territory of the Frost Blade Tribe, which even large monsters dare not approach.
“Why is the atmosphere so down? It’s not like a waiting room where everything from the casino to the underwear is thrown away and huddled together.”
It was Jinhyeok.
***
“I’m crazy…”
“I’m not crazy.”
“Damn it, this is a dream. Why did I come here…”
The players belonging to the Dangun Guild had to struggle to control their trembling bodies.
Only a dozen or so people.
When Jin-hyeok first asked to go to ‘Damsu Lake’, he secretly took out the hidden piece.
Or, I thought it was for the purpose of hunting monsters with good experience and good rewards. However
, when he heard that the
reason he came here was to meet the Ice Trolls… and, of course, the ‘Frost Blade’ tribe, known for being the most brutal, it felt like the sky was turning yellow.
this is suicidal
Asking them to go to the bedrooms of thousands of trolls with this number was tantamount to saying that they would just die.
“Ah, player Kang Jin-hyuk. Please reconsider again…”
Lee Tae-ho earnestly grabbed Jin-hyeok’s sleeve.
There was still a way to live if he hid in a rock crevice as if he were dead and ran away when he saw an opportunity.
So please…
please don’t make an accident.
Everyone looked at Jinhyeok with desperate eyes.
But it’s already too late.
“Why is the atmosphere so down? It’s not like a waiting room where everything from the casino to the underwear is thrown away and huddled together.”
Because Jinhyeok went outside with everyone’s hands on him.
It was a bonus that he had a bright smile on his face.
“human!”
“Is it an intruder!”
The ice trolls were flagships in unison.
A figure equipped with a spear and shield in an instant.
It is indeed an elite tribe that has gone through all the battles before and after birth.
“….”
Caracal also looked at Jinhyeok with an interesting look.
Either that or not, Jinhyeok moved slowly.
chuck.
The steps soon stopped. Exactly at the point facing Caracal head-on.
We couldn’t go any further because of the layered escorts.
“Hmm. Are you the leader of this tribe?”
“Yes. My name is Caracal. He leads the Frostblade Clan.”
Caracal answered meekly.
And immediately asked.
“What are you humans doing all this way? It’s not like he’s going to fight us with that number.”
“It’s just a difference in numbers… If you’re an idiot who thinks quantity is more important than quality, I’d be so disappointed. If so, I’m such a fool to come all the way here to see if the card is worth using.”
“what?”
Caracal’s face contorted.
That’s right.
Caracal was praised as the strongest warrior of the clan, and it was safe to say that he had virtually unified the 7th floor.
If there is a boss monster here, it is a story that he is strong enough to take the place.
But this kind of ignorance…!
Even the other trolls around were tilting their heads to see if they heard it right.
“You… are you going to test me? Are you saying it’s useful or not?”
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
An indescribable life began to fill the lake.
jerking
The fluff stood up.
The feeling of pressure on the skin is considerable.
Hmm…
that’s weird.
Was the Frostblade chieftain this strong?
“At this level, I don’t think I would have been pushed back even by my blood relatives, so I don’t know why it pulled its tail.”
Jinhyuk shrugged.
no seriously. Why are you so strong yet succumbing to vampires?
Of course, there must have been a guy with the title of a knight from the side of the demons. The two clans weren’t easy either, but…
well. Thousands of troops and a competent leader, Caracal, were enough to fight against.
“Am I the only one who thinks those two gave in to fear?”
“Hoo.”
What he said now had two meanings.
One is that he is confident that he will not be pushed back even against Berteon and Ophelia.
And the other one is that there are other blood relatives from the Decassus family besides the two.
That’s a higher level vampire.
‘It’s fun.’
Yes, it’s thrilling to have this level of difficulty and variables.
If everything is solved too easily, the taste of enjoying this world will be lost.
pounding! pounding! pounding!
Jinhyuk’s heart beat fast.
Arranging numerous pieces on a huge chessboard in the right place and moving them as desired to coordinate a great game is the real pleasure of making a board.
Of course, there are a few mountains to overcome in order to succeed.
I wonder if the guy growling right in front of me is one of them?
Caracal picked up the huge spear lying next to the chair.
“Come all at once. People who are cowardly from birth. I will deal with them all alone.”
“okay? So what do you do?”
“As expected, even you guys can’t do such a dishonorable thing… Huh?”
An earthquake occurred in Caracal’s pupil.
However, Jinhyeok emphasized once again what seemed natural.
“why? A cowardly human being beaten. It’s true that you don’t even know the honor. Is there any problem?”
honor? pride?
That’s what you guys are looking for hard.
There is none of that here.
“Did you hear? Dangun guild everyone. We just have to attack like very cowardly bastards. Everyone, bring your tools.”
Maybe it’s the chieftain.
There’s something I said. I’m not going to curl my tail now.
Crunchy!
Jinhyuk lightly loosened his knuckles.
